Biden's 'infrastructure czar' is a total incompetent

Mitch Landrieu

Jeff Crouere   "Mitch Landrieu, the former two-term mayor of New Orleans, was recently appointed "Infrastructure Czar" by President Joe Biden.  He will oversee spending the $1.2 trillion allocated by Congress for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.  Not surprisingly, most of the funds will be spent on projects that have nothing to do with infrastructure.

"With this appointment and the resulting media attention, Landrieu's stock is rising so fast that CNN has just added him to the list of potential Democrat party presidential candidates in 2024.

"Does Landrieu deserve all this hype?  Certainly not when considering his performance as mayor of New Orleans.  For eight years, Landrieu was a disaster as mayor.  The list of his failures is too numerous to document, but here are a few of the lowlights.

"The New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) suffered a manpower crisis as Landrieu decimated the force, refusing to provide funding for new recruitment classes.  The NOPD is still suffering from an understaffed department, compliments of Mitch Landrieu.

"With too few police officers, the crime problem, especially murders, in New Orleans has exploded in recent years.  In his final year in office, about 75% of murders were unsolved, thanks to a police force that is five hundred officers below minimum requirements.  The roots of this crisis can be traced to Landrieu's historic bungling of the NOPD." . . .
